Journal Title: 口腔疾病防治 - Year 2019, Vol 27, Issue 6
Abstract
Objective To analyze the number, distribution of root canals in children's first deciduous teeth through a retrospective study of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods A total of 185 first deciduous molars were selected from 91 children aged 4 to 8 years old in the Stomatology Department of Mianyang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The number, distribution of root canals were analyzed. Results All 46 maxillary first deciduous molars had three roots; 139 mandibular first deciduous molars had two roots (77.70%) and three roots (22.30%). The root canals of all maxillary first deciduous molars are type Ⅰ, while the main root canal type of mandibular first deciduous molars is type Ⅳ. Of 51 children with bilateral mandibular first deciduous molars, 48 (94.12%) had symmetrical root and canal distributions. Conclusion The first deciduous molars usually have 2 to 3 roots. Root canals are mainly type I and IV. The distribution of root canals is symmetrical.
